BUY.com is out of stock again. It may show in stock, but when you try to buy, it removes the item from your cart.
I'm tempted to buy it from ebay. I think this is the cheapest price for this headset that I have seen.
How is the voice quality? I've heard mixed things about it...
I was going to order this last weekend from buy.com. When i went to checkout there was an offer for checkoutfree.com to get $25 off of the order. I needed some business cards so i made a purchase at vistaprint through the buy.com/checkoutfree link for 9 bucks. Unfortunately i didn't realize that you dont' get the $25 off right away, it take sup to 4 days to get the certificate. When i finally got it, 3 days later buy.com was out. I had to get it through one of their 3rd party sellers. The final price shipped was $46.
So i just wanted to give a heads up of another way to get them cheaper.
They shipped my order the next day. The seller is SF planet who seem to have good ratings.
S9-hd
Bought these recently from FS. They sound great but my only concern is that the forward and back buttons do not change the track.
I've noticed others having the same issue. Do you believe it's a 3.0 issue that can be fixed via a software update or should I start thinking about brining these back for a refund?

It's a software issue because iPhone doesn't support the AVRCP profile completely yet. I'm excited to get mine, probably this coming Tuesday

UPDATE:
It arrived today, not Tuesday. I'm just charging it! Wooo I'm so excited to use it!
We'll see how this thing goes. Oh btw folks this is OEM in bulk so no boxes included.
EDIT:
Ok so far I don't have any skips with regards to playing my iPod (for about an hour now) however when I tried playing Pandora, I noticed very minor skips during the beginning of some songs. I closed Pandora and tried Slacker, it did the same thing - very minor skips during the beginning of the SOME songs (not all). I'll give this a test run while driving, running for tomorrow.
Add'l UPDATE:
With a constant use of almost 3 hours now, I noticed the skips are gone. Yes they're gone, haven't heard any! Must be the headset was just feelin the iPhone first lol I have seriously no clue why. The skips just happened within my first an hour and a half on Pandora and Slacker ONLY (with some of their songs) the iPod functionality has been flawless since I turned this headset on for the first time. Overall - satisfied user!
Mine came from SF planet through buy.com. They are very nice. I'm not sure what size the earbuds are as they only come with the ones that are on the headset itself. Probably are medium. It paired up very easily and the sound quality is very good. I'm not an audiofile though, but i'm happy with my purchase.
The only downside is that you can't lay down with them on.

Some people move that thing at the back of your neck to the top of your head when you're lying down. Otherwise it still looks great.
there are 30$ s9hd's on ebay. I know they are frm chinese and fake but all the buyers give 5 stars to the item. Are these fake that good? If they were bad i dont know may be at least half of buyers must give negative feedback.
And buying from ebay how can we know if the product is fake or not?

I have one from eBay coming my way. The seller states that they are OEM, no official Motorola packaging. Will test it out and let you guys know.
For those of you who workout with your S9-HD:
Is there any problem with the headphones when you sweat? I tend to sweat a lot when I work out and I'm just wondering if there is any issues.

This looks amazing! This is basically portable wireless earphones, correct?
How is the battery life on these? And are there any other wireless options besides this like earbuds? And under $100. And without a receiver, bluetooth. Thanks, these look freakin' sweet..

So far I've been using it since 13th of July, no problems yet with respect to perspiration. I think i helps that the back of it floats right behind your neck.
Yes with the 3.0 features of the iPhone, we could use A2DP Bluetooth profile enabled headsets, in short, wireless music experience. So far the battery life based on my usage: I could use it straight up to 6.xx hours, so it goes more than 6hrs after a complete full charge.
